2.To deactivate the Data Skip feature, press DATA again. DATA disappears.
When data skip is active, your scanner may pause momentarily on an unwanted signal, but will resume searching in two or three seconds. The data skip feature is active, as well as scan mode and service search mode. Data skip does not function while scanning service bands (for AIR, CB, or Weather band), or while in priority scan and trunking modes.
